1.1 All products sold by Photoscreen Ltd (the "Company") are sold subject to these terms and conditions and these terms and conditions shall be the sole terms and conditions of any sale by the Company to any person, firm or company placing an order with the Company (the "Customer"). Terms and conditions on the Customer's order form or other similar document shall not be binding on the Company and the placing of an order for or the acceptance of the products by the Customer shall indicate unqualified acceptance of these Conditions.
1.2 No representative, agent or sales person has the Company's authority to vary, amend or waive any of these Conditions on behalf of the Company and no amendment or addition to any of these Conditions shall be deemed to have been accepted unless accepted in writing by the Company.
2.ORDERS
The Company reserves the right (without prejudice to any other remedy) to cancel any uncompleted order or to suspend delivery in the event of any of the Customer's commitments with the Company not being met. If an order is cancelled by the Company in the aforementioned circumstances, or is cancelled by a Customer then the Customer shall indemnify the Company against all loss, costs (including the cost of all labour and materials used and overheads incurred), damages, charges and expenses arising out of the order and the cancellation thereof, (the Company giving credit for the value of such materials sold or utilised for other purposes).

(b) The risk of loss and/or damage to goods supplied by the Company shall pass to the Customer when they are delivered to the Customer or other person to whom the Company has been authorised by the Customer to deliver the goods, whether expressly or by implication, or (if relevant) to the carrier by the Customer. The Company shall not be liable for the safety of the goods thereafter (and accordingly the Customer should insure the goods thereafter against such risks as may be commercially prudent).

(1) If payment is overdue in whole or in part; or
(2) Immediately upon the commencement of any act or proceeding in which the customers solvency is involved or
(3) Should any cheque fail to clear the Company's bank when presented,
the Company may (without prejudice to any of its other rights) recover or sell the goods or any of them and may enter upon the Customer’s premises by its servants or agents for that purpose and the Customer hereby grants to the Company and its agents an irrevocable licence to do so. If the goods are incorporated in or used as materials for other goods before such payment, the ownership in the whole of such other goods shall be and remain with the company until such payment has been made or the Company's rights hereunder in the matter shall extend to those other goods.
